Post by: digitalinvestment.pk on December 04, 2018, 08:47:27 PM
is there anyway to upgrade Biakal a200+ Miner or add new algos ?

Currently it is not mining scrypt and other algos.

no.. baikal has never made a scrypt miner.  and if baikal hasn't released any additional firmware for the baikal, then the answer is still no for the other algos.    Have you tried contacting baikal?

They may be old but are currently making about $6/day (before electricity). One of the most profitable ASIC/FPGA's right now :)

I'm going to guess he is referring to some obscure X15 coin that seems to be worth .10 on some two-bit exchange like yobit but has no actual order book depth and only like $2 a day in actual trade volume.

I look forward to being wrong though  ;)

You get the six hashing algorithms (X11, X13, X14, X15, Quark, Qubit) that came with the miner and nothing more. If you're not making any money from the miner anymore due to electrical costs, I highly suggest selling the miner while you can if you're trying to get the most money out of it. A calculator like one from AsicMinerValue (https://www.asicminervalue.com/miners/baikal/giant-a2000) should help you raise profitability as much as possible on the machine if you're trying to find the most profitable current algorithm on the miner.

BTR on x13.

Pool is http://poolcore.bitcoinrh.org/index.html
An A2000 earns around 1.5 - 2 BTR/day
OTC trading or on Bisq for 0.001 BTC/BTR, plenty of volume.

Anyone else try this? I'd have to get my hoster to plug back in my baikals before personally trying it.. Don't want to do that if this only lasted a day or week

Have a look at the block frequency and read up on coin maturity....

Unless this is the first time you have ever mined then you really should be aware of the first payment always taking a while.

Looks fine, http://poolcore.bitcoinrh.org/dashboard.html put your wallet address in here. There is probably a minimum payout you haven't reached.
